How To: Immunity to Propaganda in 3 Easy Steps

 Step 1: don't want to be lied to.
 Step 2: see step 1.
 Step 3: see step 2. 


 If propaganda works on you, it's because you want propaganda to work on you. Stop wanting it and plus or minus inertia it will stop working. That's it. 

 See also: manipulation. 

 You can't con an honest man. Give up lying, and you can't be lied to. 


 Everything has a price. The price of propaganda immunity is difficulty communicating, since propaganda-guzzlers will now sound insane. (This is because they're crazy.) In their world, night doesn't follow day, conclusions don't follow premises, and consequently without special preparation they look like random number take generators. RTG.
